I want to do MBA in Finance from any prestigious college(in US, or in UK);
Please tell me which MBA school suits my profile...

Undergrad:- B.Tech, Mechanical Engineering, CGPA 7.65/10
(2006 passout)

Work Exp :- 2yrs
Since graduation i have worked in family business, a small scale business with 1.2 million dollar annual turnover and with 50 people working in it. The business is about manufacturing of power plants components like rotor, turbine, jigs and fixtures etc.

Although i have worked for a very short period since graduation, i have served various activities, such as
Technical assistances (owing to my graduation from technical field)
Material Purchase
Evaluation of the cost of the equipment
Marketing; across power plants in india

Within a year i help making the company an ISO certified company;


I have scored 720 (q49, v40) in gmat
(was a typo err in last post)

Why mba in finance??

I do have a family business at home ; but its a join business of my father and my uncle; i can exploit its resources only to a certain extent. So i want to establish my own business in a long term;

Owing to my business family, i am good at entrepreneurship. What i really lack is financial skill such as how to generate funds, how to manage funds, how can stock market help u etc.

Hence i want to do MBA in finance. Also, before going to business, i want to have some experience in the field of finance.

can you please tell me the top colleges where i should apply, demographies no bar; What are my chances of getting admission in top 10 colleges?

Thank you for your inquiry.

I am not sure if this is related to the previous post that I answered, but if it is, you do not need to specify that you want an "MBA in Finance." When you apply, you can identify that you have career goals in this area and explain your rationale for needing further education in this area - that is really as specific as you need to be.

You seem to have solid grades and a strong GMAT. You will need to develop a coherent story in terms of your family business and your impact on it. Your ISO story and marketing story are good starts, but what you don’t want to seem like you were all over the place - you want to hone in on your responsibilities and impact.

What have you done outside of your family business? What have you done in your community?

Sincerely,
